Pizzicato Posted October 10, 2019 Share Posted October 10, 2019 I'm getting the water flickering really badly.

-0303- Posted October 10, 2019 Share Posted October 10, 2019 (edited) I noticed the flicker, I thought it might be because I'm running a Commodore 64... Probably was on the aerobatics server. Mildly annoying, not a show stopper. Dynamic weather hypothesis: Aerobatics server definitely has "weather". Tried an offline no-weather replay - no flicker.

Gryzor Posted October 10, 2019 Share Posted October 10, 2019 please fix this damn water flickering. it's brutal in VR and makes my head hurt I fixed it by changing "Res. of cockpit displays" to "one frame" in options settings (1024 res). Completely removes the sea flickering for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Worrazen Posted October 10, 2019 Share Posted October 10, 2019 Yes I have water flickering too. Doesn't seem to always happen and may be graphics settings specific.

Gryzor Posted October 12, 2019 Share Posted October 12, 2019 I had sea flickering only with dynamic weather, not with static (I edit the weather in all missions due cloud disappearing and stuttering with static weather...) So with that settings, dynamic, I had the sea flickering. Which is solved putting "res. of cockpit displays" to oneframe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

discwalker Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 (edited) its a piece of cake the reproduction - Get any flickering mission with dynamic weather - open in ME - ad a name and save weather and time - create new mission - load saved weather and time - add a plane - play, and fly at least 5 minutes over sea After you see the flickerings in my track near Batumi in su25t cockpit "take control" and "select slot" Su-27 at Sukhumi and do experiment in that region https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/599576363837423619/679415118341341215/water_flicker_2-5-6_su25t_until_1500kg.trk with the first 2.5.6 OB versionoptions.lua Edited February 18, 2020 by discwalker GTX 1070 8GB, 16GB DDR3, W8.1 on SSD, DCS on another SSD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DLEGION Posted February 21, 2020 Share Posted February 21, 2020 hello, i got an update Yesterday evening 20/02/2020 , dont know if its the update you were referring to, but flickering is here exactly the same. plus, i found a disturbing problem, after Landing in Gudauta (but probably is the same for every other airport) , FPS went down from 60-70 to 30-35 , for no apparent reason. was playing a mission with a friend, so i thinked was something strange, and made a plane spawn in an empty map in editor. there was just my plane in the Whole map, no scripts or everything. exactly same result. FPS went down to 30-35. its really bad for gameplay smooth. you suggest to open another topic about that ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
